Week in Review: February 12-16

This week in science, we wrapped up our weather unit with a test on Friday. We built anemometers on Monday, did some online water cycle activities, and worked on reading thermometers also.


























In language arts, we continued working on our fairy tales, but also spent a day doing a required district writing assessment. Students were able to look at their reading STAAR ready test to see how they did, and to start making corrections. Over the next few weeks, we will be closely working on each passage so students will learn from their initial mistakes. I also want to congratulate the 10 students in our class who read at least 10 Bluebonnet Books and got to attend the Bluebonnet Breakfast Friday morning!



In math, we are continuing our work on multiplication, and have now learned all of the facts. Please be practicing these at home with your child so they become fluent in them. Next week (a short 3 day week), we will discuss multiplicative comparisons (twice as much, three times as many, etc.) and will have a unit test on Friday.

Ms. Lampkin has officially taken over teaching social studies, and is still working on economics related lessons. This will continue until after spring break.

Of course, the highlight of the week was the Valentine's Day party on Wednesday. Thanks to all who contributed or volunteered to make the party a success! Remember, no school for the kids on Monday or Tuesday. I hope they enjoy their 4 day weekend!
